Apple has introduced a significant improvement in charging speeds for the new iPhone 17 lineup. According to Apple’s website, all three models—iPhone 17, iPhone 17 Pro, and iPhone 17 Pro Max—can now reach 50% battery life in just 20 minutes when connected to a compatible USB-C power adapter. This is notably faster than the previous charging speeds, which took about 30 minutes to achieve the same percentage.

To enhance these new charging speeds, Apple offers a new accessory: the “Dynamic Power Adapter with 60W Max.” Although the charger can momentarily deliver up to 60W of power due to its compact design, it will sustain an output of 40W. Available for $39 from the Apple Store or online, this adapter is sold separately.

However, users are not limited to using Apple’s products; other compatible USB-C chargers that meet the specifications can also provide fast charging. The effectiveness and speed of the Dynamic charger remain to be tested, but it promises faster charging up to 60W if it works as expected.

It’s important to note that the ultra-thin iPhone Air does not benefit from these improved charging speeds and charges at a slower rate, reaching only 50% in about 30 minutes. This is less efficient compared to the newer models.

The entire iPhone 17 lineup will be available for pre-order starting September 12, with shipments beginning on September 19.
